I got that tip off my G-chat list and hunted down UK funky, a style of electronic dance music that incorporates broken beats and afro beats, according to Wiki. So, house music with a darker African bent due to percussions such as drums, bongos and tambourines.
In 2007, ravers in Aiya Napa came together and to entertain, the DJ mixed London grime (grimey basslines) with funky house, with Coki and Benga’s “Night” being the number one track. Whistle-able tune.
For a lot more, a good aggregation in The Daily Swarm. Wonder if any events in New York.
